Lowcountry Market Update 🗺️
The market is still moving, but buyers have more leverage than they've had in quite some time.
• Inventory is growing across Coastal Georgia and the South Carolina Lowcountry, giving buyers more homes to choose from.
• Homes are taking longer to sell than they were a year or two ago, which means buyers have more time to make decisions.
• More sellers are offering price reductions, closing cost assistance, rate buydowns, and other incentives to attract buyers.
The takeaway? Buyers have more negotiating power, while sellers need to be strategic and price their homes correctly from day one.
If you're thinking about buying, now is a great time to get pre-approved.
Today's market offers more choices and more negotiating power, and being ready to act could be an advantage if economic or geopolitical events create renewed volatility in mortgage rates later this year.
